Re: How do you afford it?
this is a great post. one of the reasons i love my old beat up truck is because it is just that. Where I live every idiot drives a huge suv or very expensive sports luxury sedan - whatever that is. sure some people can afford it, but most are just playin keep up with the neighbors. my truck is 40 years old, unique - especially in rustylvania, saves me tons of money because i use it all the time, and oh yeah, long since paid for. when people remark about my truck whether good or bad, i often tell them I only have a few more lease paymetns, as a joke.
live within your means is the number one factor.
don't own a 67-72 because you want a super nice one to impress everyone, own it because its the best looking truck every made, and YOU thinks its cool. well 67-68 really. and only spend what you can afford to spend just pick away at it.
